Story

    Sororities and Fraternities, that's what Brevan University is all about. This is what defies your social stature in college. The girls get excited about being a part of a sisterhood, getting to the coolest college parties and of course, wearing elegant pearls. The guys can't wait for the beer and the endless nights of partying. But what if after hazing week you don't get picked to be a member of the prestigious sorority or fraternity you wanted to belong to?
    Things change for six people, three guys and three girls, who had always been in the upper social status in high school. They were used to being treated as special. Now, they have to live with the House of "losers." Some of them are okay with it, some are not. So, how are they going to get through college life? Will they be able to deal with the people they ignored when they were in highschool? That's for you to decide.

The Sorority
                  House: ΩΦΓ [Omega Phi Gamma]


    The Debate Club Leader

      She has brains and uses it well. She had always been an A student who wears the nerdy glasses. She doesn't believe in labels and hate superficial people. Her favorite subject is history and always had a fascination with people who changed it, even Hitler.

    The Necrophiliac

      Yeah, she loves gore and blood and all that stuff. She has been accused of being a witch, she has neither confirmed nor denied it. She is an Atheist but she remains open-minded with other religions. She also finds it annoying when people force their religion on others.

    The Sporty Chic

      Pretty much the tomboy who hates girly stuff, she loves playing sports like soccer and can even beat the boys. She thinks it's ridiculous when a girl whines just because she broke a nail. She loves luxurious sports cars even if she hasn't owned one yet.


    The Fashionista

      You'll never catch her wearing a "what-was-she-thinking?" outfit. She loves couture and dreams of becoming a supermodel. We can also say she's Daddy's Little Girl. So why didn't she get into her dream sorority? The thing is, she's a social climber and they are afraid she might just take advantage of being a member of the prestigious sorority which may only destroy the name it upholds. They decided to teach her a lesson by forcing her to join the House of losers.

    The Dumb Blonde

      Your typical dumb blonde who says the funniest things. The sorority she wants to join insists that they are "intelligent people" who do not associate themselves with people who have an IQ as low as hers.

    The Girl who Lives in Fairytales

      The girl who's oblivious to the real world. Her deceased mother was a member of the sorority she wanted to join. Her two step sisters are currently members of the sorority and they might just be the reason why she didn't get in. She's a kid at heart and so very innocent. Does her story sound familiar?

The Fraternity
                  House: ΣΜΔ [Sigma Mu Delta]


    The Mathlete Champion

      A genius, he's the guy who can solve Math problems in mere seconds. His hobbies? Solving logics, watching those weird sci-fi movies, and playing chess! He doesn't like girls who have beauties with no brains to match.

    The Techno Geek

      He knows every gadget there is and even builds robots. Of course, his nerdy friends defy this ability of his as "cool" but face it, it's not. What's cute about him is he's never kissed a girl before!

    The Star Wars Fan

      He loves reading comic books and keeps the collector's editions in their little plastic bags. No, he doesn't run around with a cape tied around his neck or wears his underwear outside his pants, though he likes going to conventions and at full costume too.


    The Rock Star

      He's a drummer and he carries his drumsticks around all the time and randomly beats things with them. He has a loud personality and this might be the reason why the fraternity he wants to join didn't accept him.

    The Surreal Guy

      He's smart but he doesn't show it much. He's also a nice guy once you get to know him. He's usually serious and keeps to himself. He didn't get in to the fraternity of his choice because of a certain rival of his.

    The Ladies' Man

      He was born to a rich family and he was expected to be a part of the fraternity his father and grandfather belonged to. The thing is, this fraternity has a high level of respect for themselves and women, and him being a flirt? Well, it didn't exactly work out for him. Still, he thinks he's the coolest guy to walk the face of Earth. Egotistic much?

Rules

    Always follow Gaia ToS. Romance is a big part of the story but don't go beyond the limit. Cursing is allowed but not every other word. Your characters can have fights, drama is good, but don't take it too far, you know what I mean. Use proper grammar, punctuation and spelling all the time. Write at least three paragraphs, maximum is five. No one liners. Also, don't make a post that's too long but is full of nonsense. Try to be active & post at least three times a week. If you can't then let us know. You don't have the backspace key in real life so use it when you should.

    You don't have to make your posts pretty but they don't have to be boring either, after all, a little effort goes a long way. Always include the name and picture of your character in your post layout. Do not use Disney, Twilight, emo or scene people as your models. And I'm very sorry but no homosexuals as there are only a few characters. Also, I know it's fun for you to invent unique names but do not make the name of your characters too long or hard to pronounce so that it will be easier for all of us to spell and remember. And I beg of you, no Mary-Sues or Gary Stus, keep your characters as real as possible.

    Use [], (), or whatever for OOC but keep it minimal since we have a thread especially for that. Do not mention you're having writer's block in your OOC please. If you want to reserve a role, fill out the form then PM it to me. Title it as the continuation to this line: "Here we are now, _________." Clue: it's a Nirvana song. After I have accepted your reserve, send me your character profile entitled as the continuation to this line: "So long lives this now, why would you highlight this part?." Send it within two days after approval or the role will go to someone else. Lastly, respect each other and have fun.

    New rules will be announced.

    ↘ ↘ STORY

      CONCEPT:
        When people die with an unfinished business, they usually stay behind, asking for help from the living. But what happens if the person's soul inhabits a thing that belonged to them which they cannot take to the grave? They then ask for help from the people who find these things. Three ghosts attach their souls to the very thing that represented their lives. Three people who are losing hope find these things that might change their lives forever. This is their story.

      HOW IT ALL BEGINS:
        There's an out-of-the-way antique shop located in a quiet place in the small town of Winterbury. The shop sells things owned by people who died tragically. Their family or friends do not want to keep these things, be it that there's a sad story behind it or it just simply reminds them of their deceased loved one. These things are gathering dusts on their displays, having been there for so long and with no one buying anything at all. The owner thought of closing down the shop for good and enter another business. But on the last day it was opened, three people who have never noticed it before entered the shop, not knowing what's in store for them. Searching for something their hearts yearn for, their interest was caught by what they thought were ordinary things that turned out to be anything but.
          These things are:
          xxxxxA book that was written by a frustrated author is found by a successful scriptwriter who is looking for the next big story to turn into a film.
          xxxxxA dagger a murderer used to kill his victims is found by a suicidal young woman who is looking for a way to end her life in a dramatic manner.*
          xxxxxAn engagement ring owned by a lonely bride who was left by her fiance on her wedding day is found by a hopeless romantic about to propose to his girlfriend who cheats on him.*

        *These are just my ideas, you can come up with something else. If you have other ideas, I would like to know them. I don't really like to direct the plot too much so feel free to add your own thoughts to it, just make sure it's a really good one though. I think I'm sticking with the book. Check the rules on what you should PM me with. :]

    ↘ ↘ RULES

      GENERAL:
        First and foremost, follow Gaia ToS at all times. Do not Godmod. Romance is encouraged but you should know your limits. Cuss and swear only when the situation calls for it. Give respect to anyone who deserves it. Let us know if you won't be able to post for a while. Keep everyone involved, don't ignore other characters trying to interact with yours. Do not take fights too seriously.

      LITERACY:
        I expect three to five paragraphs. Write in third person. Proper grammar , punctuation and spelling is very much important. When I talk of literacy level, it's more of quality than quantity. So that means being able to write 7+ paragraphs is not considered literate if all you wrote about is how your character shampooed her hair. Please, I'll have none of that. And about writer's block, don't make it an excuse. There's a way around that. If you're able to post two paragraphs with giving us something to work with then that's acceptable. Never post one liners because that would get us nowhere, even if I just said that its quality over quantity. Because, really, what can you make out of a one-liner post? No text talk please, even in texts if possible. Small mistakes, like typos, can be made but not too much. Know the difference between too/two, your/you're, their/they're and know/now. It would be very much appreciated. And don't try too hard and write big words making us look it up in the dictionary every single time.

      CHARACTERS:
        Make your characters evolve and keep them real. By this, I mean make them act as humanly as possible with emotions and such. That means no Mary Sues or Gary Stus, everybody hates them. And I know its fun to invent names but please don't make them unpronouncable or hard to spell and remember. Also, I'm sorry but I'm making everyone heterosexual as there are only a few characters.

      POSTING:
        Use creativity in your post styles but do not rape it with icons and such. The name and image of your chacter/s must always be in there somewhere. Use real people for models, no anime. Also, do not use emo/scene, Disney or Twilight people. Don't use asterisks (**) for actions. Quotes should be colored with your posting color and are enclose by " ", thoughts should be italicized, texts, notes or e-mails should be underlined. Post colors should be readable. Use font sizes 10-12. Keep OOC minimal and enclose with [] or {}. I know we have this so-called life, so if you can then post at least two to four times a week. I would really like to keep this roleplay going.

      APPLICATION:
        Do not alter the reserve form, just fill in the necessary information. The title of the PM should be the thing that your character left behind or found in the antique shop. Once I accept, go ahead and post. There are no profiles so make your intro post a detailed one. You can have up to two characters, but of different genders.

      OTHER:
        If you have any suggestions or ideas for the storyline, go ahead and tell me in a PM. Title it "Left Behind" so I'll know what you're talking about. Do not link outfits and stuff, describe them in detail if you must. Do not mention you're having writer's block in OOC or any variations of that. New rules will be announced.
